I want to fix the EPR settings for the MS 747 plane. The settings are way off. Is there a way to decompile the .gau file so I can investigate the problem? Wouls FS Panel Studio do the trick? I need some adive and help. This is driving me nuts.Thanks

The EPR information is provided to the gauge from the EPR section in the *.air file.Section 1532 *FS2K Turbine EPR EPR Scale Factor=1.000000 EPR Calibrate=1.400000 EPR Rate of Change=14.000000The gauge parameters are in the boeing747-400.cab file in your fs2002gauges folder. You can unzip this *.cab file with Winzip. The file is labelled EICAS Display.xml.You can download an *.air file editor from:AIRED - http://members.dsl-only.net/~eagle/ orFDEditor - http://www.flightsimdownloads.com/Since the gauge file is an output device for the inputs it is getting from the *.air file, I would try editing the *.air file EPR settings first. You might find that many other sections of the *.air file and aircraft.cfg file need tweaking to get the result you desire or it might be as simple at adjusting the EPR Calibration setting up/down.

W. Sieffert,Thank you for the timely repsonse. I appreciate the information and the tips. I am going to play with .air file and see what I come up with. Again, thanks for the information.

W. SieffertI have AirEd and I checked out the *.air file for the 747-400 and I didn't find any values under the 1532 section. AirEd tells me 1532 is Unkown. Am I missing something here?

You possibly may have an outdated INI file.. You can get a new .ini and/or program at http://members.dsl-only.net/~eagleRegards,Roman[link:www.packers.com]GREEN BAY PACKERS][/i :-ukliam :-beerchug

Roman,That was the problem. I downloaded the newer version and it now works. Thanks,

The EPR Record in Aired.ini only lets you set EPR at one condition, it reads way too low at high altitudes. Ron
